I'm looking at various ways of increasing power on my Necro ATM, so that I can make sure the casters/healers in my GG have plenty of juice.

What I'd like to know is, which of the Serenity and Etheral Bond RAs offers the better bang for my buck? If I understand it correctly, Serenity increases the rate at which I regen mana when resting, while Etheral Bond simply increases the size of my power pool (in a similar way that Aug Acuity does, without also raising my Int obviously). I'd rather just get one then both as I also want MoM and WP for offensive use.

I already have RP I and MCL I, and am stocking up on Aug Acuity also.

TIA :)

I dont know if serenity stacking has changed in NF but (as i think it still is) it stacks with mincers/sorcs power regen but only up to value 5. I.e. yellow crack (value 4) + serenity 1 = red crack (value 5) BUT yellow crack (value 4) + serenity 3 = red crack (value 5). Only way to increase regen speed over value 5 is to use Erine Darkness Lightning Stone lvl 10 or Enrynis Charm lvl 10.

My top priorty would rather be get Myhic to fix so necros can use power pot in shade mode! :clap:

Am in complete agreement (as one of the casters that needs the power feed - or one of the casters that uses up the clerics power too fast :)).

MCL2 is now for me a 'must have' its rarely not up with the 3 min timer - though sometimes dropping combat for 10s can prove diffcult when you're running about with a big sign over your head saying hit me :)

It's sorted now. I managed to RA /respec the last day they were available and now have:

MCL II
Aug Acu II
Serenity I
MoM I
WP I

I'll be looking to take each of the four passives to Lvl IV as I ascend RR.

Oh, and I agree about the power pot thing, it would be awesome if we could use them in shade form :)

and get 50%+ from items...

My RVR templates sorted already, which increases my power pool (with BoM), but there are no other artifacts in it.

Personally I quite like high serenity, simply because of all the annoying 'in combat' bugs that keep you from getting fop power or mcl off.

Have to admit the cap 5 bonus is annoying i'd like to see some documentation somewhere from mythic saying if this is still the case or not :(
